Don't Wait

Until your hair becomes dry, thin, and
gray before giving the attention needed
to preserve its beauty and vitality.
Keep on your toilet-table bottle of
Ayers Hair Vigor-the only dressing
you require for the hair-and use little,
daily, to preserve the natural color and
prevent badness.
Thomas Munday, Sharon Grove, KY
writes Several months ago my hair
commenced falling out, and in few
weeks my head was almost bald. /
tried many remedies, but they did no
good. finally bought a bottle Of Ayers
Hair Vigor, and, after using only part
of the contents, my head was covered
with heavy growth of hair. I recon-
mend your preparation as the best hair
restorer in the world"
my hair was faded and dry" writes
Mabel G. Hardy, of Delavan, ILL.,; but
after using bottle of Ayers Hair yigor
it became black and glossy"

OUn metropolitan contemporary

OUR metropolitan contemporary
the Baltimore Sun, is full to over
flowing in its compliments to the
induction into Office of Mr.. L. NJ.
Shryyer as d member and President
of the Police Board of the monu-
mental city, but We fail to notice
any mention of the name of his
predecessor-Hon. George Cotton.
The Sun fails even to extend the
usual JUNCTION applied to outgoing
public official of "well done thou
good aud faithful servant" Is it
because our luminous contempt
rary prefers to worship the rising
rather than the setting sun?

The opinion prevails that the in.

stop to arrangements by railroad
companies for special rates to ex-
cursion parties and delegates to
conventions and conferences. Sena-

is emphatic in declaring that the
act does not prohibit the making OF
special rates for great gatherings,
such as the encampment and politi-
cal and other conventions. This

A democratic paper informs us
that a story is going the rounds
that Mr.. Blaine and Mr.. Sherman
have come to an understanding upon
the subject of Presidential aspira

being that, in the event Mr.. Cleye-
land is rcnominated, Mr.. Blaine is
to be given an opportunity to try
conclusions with him before the
people: but if Mr. Cleveland should
not be candidate and Gov. Hill is
the Democratic choice, then Mr..
Blaine is to give over his aspirations
in favor Of Mr. Sherman. The re-

Cleveland and Hill, BY which one

IL general way the capital
stock in corporations on which own
ers claim dividends represents one
dollar in money and three dollars in
water. Railroad companies, gas
companies, coal companies, water
companies, are, with here and there
an exception, founded on this basis.
The inevitable consequence is lit
tie higher rates of fare, higher
price for gas, coal and water than
would be necessary if dividends
were only paid on capital paid in.
The citizen is feeced in legal way.
The public give all these companies
special privileges, with the under
standing that for the capital and
labor invested fair price shall be
charged, and no more. When,
therefore, price is charged which
pays dividends on capital never in
vested, wrong is committed upon
the public.

TUE recent railroad horrors nat
urally call attention to the amount
of fatality arising from such disas-
tiers in the past few years. 1t APP
pears that during the last several
years there have been 1868 persons
killed by railroad accidents in the
United States and Canada, over 49,
900 injured. The year 1855 had
900 less accidents than 1886, but
these killed so more passengers not
withstanding. The year 1884, with
500 killed and 1000 injured, still
stands out prominently as the most
fatal to railroad passengers during
the past decade. If the year 1887
continues as it has begun it will
eclipse them all.

A Home of His Own.

| write this from under my own
vine and fig tree, from beneath roof
of my own. L am landed proprie-
tor, taxpayer, the owner of a bit
of ground, and house. Ever since
our marriage. seven years ago, my
wife and l have longed for this day
to come. We have saved aud have
''scimped," hoped and prayed for it,
and at last it has come to pass. We
have paid out hundreds of dollars in
rent, and been hustled around in the
nOmadic manner too common
among young married people in
America. And when our two cher
ished Brussels carpets were being cut
and slashed into SO recklessly to fit
the parlor and sitting room, Mrs.
Dane said gratefully: "WelI, it's the
last time they'll have to be cut, for
they are down ito stay now: that's
one consolation" The home we are
so happy in is not all paid for, but we
see our way clear to pay for it in
time. Young married people should
start out in life with the fixed deter
mination of putting roof over their
heads that they can call their own,
and this is not such very hard thing
to in these days of loan and building
associations and cheap rates of inter-
est,
My interest is not much more
than half the amount l have been
paying in rents. 1t is difficult to de-
fine the feeling one has in home of
ones own. There is something in
being "a landed proprietor" that
tones one up wonderfully, adds digni-
ty and earnestness to life. You liter
ally feel that you are somebody. |
actually felt a positive pleasure in
paying my taxes yesterday. and felt
sorry for the poor fellows who have
no taxes to pay.
set out some rose bushes last
week, eXulting in the thought that
they were mine and that neither they
nor L were subject to the within of
some real estate agent VINO could
give US thirty days notice. When l
come home from my office at night it
is home indeed to me, And when
one has children it is more necessary
than ever that there be a place for
them that they can call home a
place that they can love and remem-
b9r as home throughout all their af-
ter-lives. l hope to see the children
of my months-old baby playing in
this house some day.
